The real estate market is witnessing notable developments across several localities. From now until 2030, Bac Ninh aims to build, complete and put into use 72.62 million square meters of floor area, equivalent to approximately 511,600 commercial housing units. Meanwhile, in the affordable apartment segment, although many units have been discounted by several hundred million dong to as much as one billion dong after a two-year period of rapid price growth, transactions remain difficult because of buyers’ limited purchasing capacity. Experts say suitable prices, affordable products, flexible payment policies and the removal of legal obstacles are important factors in improving market liquidity. The demand for optimized living space is also reflected in small-apartment designs, such as a 27-square-meter apartment using an interconnected layout and multifunctional furniture, or a 43-square-meter house arranged to provide sufficient space for six people through the use of wooden box-like st...

In Ho Chi Minh City, outstanding loans for tourism and resort real estate reached approximately VND 30 trillion, accounting for a small share of total real estate credit in the city. The State Bank of Vietnam said additional lending for restaurants, hotels, tourism destinations, ecological projects and resorts would be excluded from this year’s real estate credit growth.
